Setting Up Alerts for Jobs

How would it feel if I told you that you can employ Google to look for a job for you? Yes, all you have to do is fill in a few forms that tell Google about your requirement. It will take less than 20 minutes and you will have Google searching for a job for you.

Sounds unbelievable? Well here it is…

Google says “Enter the topic you wish to monitor”

So you have to do a wee bit of thinking. Suppose you are looking for an online typist job. “Typists” will cover both online and offline all over the world. So the search term isn’t relevant for you. So “online typist” is a better search term. So you enter “online typists” in the search terms box.

Next is “Type”. This drop down box contains alerts on for Videos, News, Blogs, Groups and Web. It also covers all of the above options under “Comprehensive”. Go for comprehensive at this stage.

Then Google asks you how often: This covers the frequency of alerts that have to be delivered into your email box. It can be once a week, once a day and as happens. “Once a day” is a good way to get a list.

After you enter your email address you get this screen:

Your alert has been created but you need to go to your inbox to verify it. The message is from Google Alerts and the subject line “Click to Confirm Your Google Alert”. It contains a link, click on it.

You’ll now have Google working around the clock to bringing you information. Create more alerts for typists job, transcription jobs, hire typists, stenographers needed and so on.

And don’t forget to keep practicing till you are ready for your typing certification. Learn to Type with TypingWeb.
